Combination smoking device and lighter

Abstract

A pipe lighter includes a lighter apparatus coupling with an inhaler apparatus. The inhaler apparatus includes a crucible unit coupled with the housing sidewall of the lighter housing and a tubular inhaling guider extended from the crucible unit, wherein the crucible unit has a substance chamber positioned adjacent to a flame opening of the lighter apparatus for retaining a smoking substance in the substance chamber, such that the lighter apparatus is actuated to produce a flame for a combustion of the smoking substance to be smoked and for an inhalation of smoked through the inhaling guider.

1. A lighter, comprising:
 a lighter apparatus which comprises a lighter housing having a housing sidewall, a flame opening provided at said housing sidewall, and a fuel storage chamber for storing liquefied gas therewithin, an ignition unit supported within said lighter housing, a flame nozzle operatively extended from said fuel storage chamber to said flame opening for releasing said gas in a controllable manner, and an actuator which is movably supported on said lighter housing and is arranged in such a manner that when said actuator is depressed, said gas in said fuel storage chamber is released towards said flame nozzle while said ignition unit is activated for igniting said gas at said flame nozzle so as to produce a flame through said flame opening; and 
 an inhaler apparatus which comprises a crucible unit coupled with said housing sidewall of said lighter housing and a tubular inhaling guider extended from said crucible unit, wherein said crucible unit has a substance chamber positioned adjacent to said flame opening of said lighter housing for retaining a smoking substance in said substance chamber, such that said lighter apparatus is actuated to produce said flame for a combustion of said smoking substance to be smoked and for an inhalation of said smoked through said inhaling guider, wherein said crucible unit has a coupling sidewall pivotally coupling with said housing sidewall of said lighter housing to enable said inhaler apparatus to pivotally move between a folded position that said flame opening is covered by said coupling sidewall of said crucible unit for preventing said flame being produced at said flame opening, and an unfolded position that said crucible unit is pivotally folded until said substance chamber thereof is positioned adjacent to said flame opening of said lighter housing, wherein said inhaling guider has a mouth-piece end, an opposed coupling end coupling with said crucible unit, and an inhaler channel extended from said coupling end to said mouth-piece end to communicate with said substance chamber for an inhalation of said smoked through said inhaling guider. 
 
     
     
       2. The lighter, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said coupling end of said inhaling guider is detachably coupled with said crucible unit. 
     
     
       3. The lighter, as recited in  claim 2 , further comprising a side housing sidewardly and integrally extended from said housing sidewall of said lighter housing, wherein said side housing has a top wall and a front wall arranged in such a manner that when said inhaler apparatus is pivotally folded at said folded position, said inhaling guider is folded to overlay on said front wall of said side housing, and when said inhaler apparatus is pivotally folded at said unfolded position, said crucible unit is folded to overlay on said top wall of said side housing, such that said front wall and said top said inhaler apparatus between said folded and unfolded positions. 
     
     
       4. The lighter, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said lighter housing further has a plurality of ventilating holes spacedly formed on said housing sidewall of said lighter housing to communicate with an interior thereof for enhancing an air circulation of said lighter housing when said lighter apparatus is actuated for ignition. 
     
     
       5. The lighter, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said side housing has a substance compartment formed at said front wall for containing said smoking substance to be smoked within said substance compartment, and comprises a compartment cover pivotally coupled at said front wall to pivotally enclose said substance compartment. 
     
     
       6. The lighter, as recited in  claim 5 , wherein said lighter housing further has a plurality of ventilating holes spacedly formed on said housing sidewall of said lighter housing to communicate with an interior thereof for enhancing an air circulation of said lighter housing when said lighter apparatus is actuated for ignition. 
     
     
       7. The lighter, as recited in  claim 5 , wherein said side housing has a trapezoid shape that a cross-sectional area of said substance compartment is gradually reducing towards said top wall. 
     
     
       8. The lighter, as recited in  claim 7 , wherein said lighter housing further has a plurality of ventilating holes spacedly formed on said housing sidewall of said lighter housing to communicate with an interior thereof for enhancing an air circulation of said lighter housing when lighter apparatus is actuated for ignition. 
     
     
       9. The lighter, as recited in  claim 7 , wherein said inhaler apparatus is perpendicularly extended from said lighter apparatus when said inhaler apparatus is folded at said unfolded position, while said inhaler apparatus is parallely extended from said lighter apparatus to overlap said coupling sidewall with said housing sidewall when said inhaler apparatus is folded at said folded position so as to form a compact box-shaped structure. 
     
     
       10. The lighter, as recited in  claim 9 , wherein said lighter housing further has a plurality of ventilating holes spacedly formed on said housing sidewall of said lighter housing to communicate with an interior thereof for enhancing an air circulation of said lighter housing when said lighter apparatus is actuated for ignition. 
     
     
       11. The lighter, as recited in  claim 1 , further comprising a side housing sidewardly and integrally extended from said housing sidewall of said lighter housing, wherein said side housing has a top wall and a front wall arranged in such a manner that when said inhaler apparatus is pivotally folded at said folded position, said inhaling guider is folded to overlay on said front wall of said side housing, and when said inhaler apparatus is pivotally folded at said unfolded position, said crucible unit is folded to overlay on said top wall of said side housing, such that said front wall and said top wall of said side housing form as two folding guides for limiting a pivotal movement of said inhaler apparatus between said folded and infolded positions. 
     
     
       12. The lighter, as recited in  claim 11 , wherein said side housing has a substance compartment formed at said front wall for containing said smoking substance to be smoked within said substance compartment, and comprises a compartment cover pivotally coupled at said front wall to pivotally enclose said substance compartment. 
     
     
       13. The lighter, as recited in  claim 12 , wherein said side housing has a trapezoid shape that a cross-sectional area of said substance compartment is gradually reducing towards said top wall. 
     
     
       14. The lighter, as recited in  claim 13 , wherein said inhaler apparatus is perpendicularly extended from said lighter apparatus when said inhaler apparatus is folded at said unfolded position, while said inhaler apparatus is parallely extended from said lighter apparatus to overlap said coupling sidewall with said housing sidewall when said inhaler apparatus is folded at said folded position so as to form a compact box-shaped structure.
